This track defined a lot of my summers growing up in the scene. It’s no secret I love trance music, but I also love drum and bass. This track was one of the first to make me fall in love with the genre. I would rush to the dance floor whenever I heard it come in. This version has vocals from MC Stamina laid over the music and was released back in 2003. It’s still golden years later. Enjoy your summer and soak up some good sun along with some good music while you’re at it.
I was listening to electronic dance music without even knowing it when I was listening to Jock Jams in the 90s. Fast forward to my senior year in high school and I had discovered Fatboy Slim. I have been listening to edm ever since and love writing about new sounds, good sounds, and the music that makes us move.
